One Sweet Love Lyrics

Cover art for One Sweet Love lyrics by Sara Bareilles

This song is my favorite on Little Voice-- which I'm obsessed with... it never comes out of my car's cd player! :)

To me this song is all about the notion that all girls have about their "One Sweet Love". We believe in finding the one guy that is for us... but what happens if we pass over it? Sara brilliantly address this often unspoken fear...

"A heart I swear I'd recognize is made out of my own devices ...could I be wrong?"

We worry that we've already had our "One Sweet Love" and let it go...

"Time that I've taken, I pray it's not wasted. Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?"

My favorite lines of the song:

"The things I dream that I can do, I'd open up the moon for you... Just come down soon." ^^ Love love love the last line... I'd do anything for you, just hurry up and get here"

"I don't look, don't touch, don't do anything, but hope that there is a you." ^^ All we do is hope our love is out there, and we're scared to do anything to mess that up.

I could go on and on and on about this song, I love it so much! haha

I think you've got it. I agree with this interpretation. My favorite line is, "Your unexpected love provides my solitary suicide".

e> -Beautiful.
